49ers have reportedly discussed making significant front office hire
“Kurtenbach said the 49ers have discussed hiring someone in the front office to serve as a de facto GM, and if they make a move like this, it could happen in the next two weeks.

“There has been conversation about that,” Kurtenbach told Guerrera, regarding potential changes to the 49ers’ front office.

Asked if there had been “significant” conversation about this, Kurtenbach answered, “Not enough to where it’s actually happening, but there has been conversation to that degree. It wouldn’t shock me in the next couple of weeks if a hire was made that gave you a pretty clear indication that that’s the way things are going.” ….”Might not happen,” Kurtenbach added. “But the conversation, in order to bring this person in, such a delineation, while not strictly prescribed in the hiring, would make it very easy to infer or very easy to see how such a delineation of John Lynch as president of football operations, fill in the blank as day-to-day general manager and Kyle Shanahan as head coach and most important voice in the building would fall into place.

“That does not mean it’s going to happen. It does not mean that it is, to my knowledge, imminent. It’s just to say that in the conversation on ‘should we bring this guy in,’ such a delineation would have to informally take place because there’s no way to bring him in otherwise.”
